Went for a walk as usual in the Cemetery, it was a bit of a risk,so many old trees losing fair sized branches in the very strong winds.
The snowdrops are out ,quite a lot but I feel sure some have been taken as many fewer than last year.
Mild even with the high winds.
Amended my next Tesco order and my son phoned to check which size is my outdoor movement sensitive light, it has given up the ghost.
I only now have three watches that work, two wind up ones and a battery one.All three bought for special occasions,two by OH and one
for my seventieth Birthday by my children ,however I would not dream of using them to just time a walk .
The one bought by children was going to be a Rolex!
Like heck ! I thought ,all the faff about insurance etc.
So I looked at some Rolex in the Jeweller’s ,then at some Rotary , we went for a coffee and came back and from a fair distance where I could not see the names, chose the one I liked best ,which happened to be a Rotary.
A good watch but nothing like as expensive as a Rolex.
I love it.
The cheapies ought to be chucked out but—- ,by the time they all have batteries in I could buy a Rolex!
My ordinary ones are all battery driven,and there are five of those!
Only inexpensive ones ,but all need new batteries .
Can’t get to the jewellers’or the “watch man “ on Bury market.
Quite dark already ,but mild even with the wind.
Flash Harry us in his element ,mucking out the horse with his Daddy , it is just across the road from the grumbelow!
He did not like the hay getting into his boots so there is a dealers specialising in riding wear horse feed etc and they had some old stock of Chaps, very cheap ,so talk about Billy the Kid!
But they do the job.
FH has been counting out the tablets for the horse, he has a variety ,twelve in total, and FH was accurate .
He loves being busy , having tasks to do and do you know he is strwong !
Well folks not much happening except son asked me to save crisp packets as they can be re- cycled for emergency blankets especially for rough sleepers .
Made from the same material as the silvery blankets that are put round people in shock and with hypothermia .
Cheerio.Look after yourselves.
